Tri-Die Silica & Pyrethrum Dust is not labelled for yellow jackets. We would recommend dusting with Tempo 1% Dust to the areas where the yellow jackets are entering and exiting around siding. When the yellow jackets contact a treated area, they pick the dust upon their legs and bodies, and they spread it to others in the nest through contact. Tempo dust will stay effective for several months as long as it is dry. The best time to make your applications is in the late evening when they are less active. We suggest having a contact spray on hand such as the Wasp X Wasp & Hornet Spray.
